KAMC's 'Wish Wednesday' series shares the stories of 'wish kids' right here on the South Plains and gives you an inside look into the great things the Make-A-Wish chapter of the Texas Plains South is doing for those kids with life-threatening illnesses.

Tristan Gipson was born with a rare midline defect where her intestines and other body parts were outside her body at birth.

After several major surgeries, she now looks like any other kid and Make-A-Wish celebrated her struggle by sending little Tristan to Disney World.

Check out Tristan's story by clicking on the video box to the left.

It costs about $7,000 on average to grant a wish like Tristan's wish.

If you would like to donate, and remember all the money stays right here on the South Plains, contact Make-A-Wish at 785-9474 or visit www.facebook.com/wishlubbock.
